When I want to run this code in ECLiPSe-CLP I get the following Error

Error:
string stream 27: syntax error: postfix/infix operator expected

|     4 $= X^2 + Y^2,   (Error Mark is under '=')
|           

Code:

circles(X, Y) :-
    4 $= X^2 + Y^2,
    4 $= (X - 1)^2 + (Y - 1)^2,
    X $>= Y.
false

The $=/2 operator/predicate is a library predicate. Are you loading the library defining it? E.g.

[eclipse 12]: lib(ic).

Yes (0.12s cpu)

[eclipse 13]: [user].
circles(X, Y) :-
     4 $= X^2 + Y^2,
    4 $= (X - 1)^2 + (Y - 1)^2,
     X $>= Y.

Yes (0.00s cpu)

[eclipse 14]: circles(X, Y).

X = X{-1.0000000000000004 .. 2.0000000000000004}
Y = Y{-1.0000000000000004 .. 2.0000000000000004}

There are 13 delayed goals. Do you want to see them? (y/n)
